GOZASOURO

Let me introduce a Japanese sweet again!
Is is really my favorite from my childhood.



"GOZASOUROU", It is Japanese muffin containing red/white bean jam inside and serves hot.
There are so many similar sweets that are called Taiko-yaki, Kaiten-yaki, Imagawa-yaki, Oban-yaki... in all Japan.
However "GOZASOUROU" is the BEST!

It is very cold and snowing in Kyoto.
Let's get some "GOZASOUROU" and have some Japanese green tea.
They will make you warm and happy :)

survival

I found 2 criminals in our hostel LOL !!

It was coldest last week in Kyoto.

Even for me, it was not sure I could survive this winter but it must be more difficult for the people come from hot area like Australia, Brazil, Mexico and so on…

They(on the picture above) were from Australia is summer now,seasons are opposite to Japan.

It must be really really cold for them too.

It is getting warmer now, and Spring is coming!!
Do you know that Spring in japan will be full of beautiful pink or white cherry blossoms ? (it is amazingly beautiful. )
For cherry trees to bloom, they need to experience low temperatures during the winter.
I guess they must bloom beautifully this spring more than past years.
Come to Japan(KYOTO) and enjoy the cherry blossoms viewing!!

my favorite phrase in Japanese
”Spring comes after winter”　"fuyu no ato niwa haru ga kuru"

It's snowing in Hiroshima

Hi there! It is snowing in Hiroshima.
It's freezing cold outside, but it's fun!

I found a nice guest with a nice T-shirts in this morning.
In Japan,most of Japanese people can not spend a day with only T-shirts in winter.

I have heard that western people have higher body temprature than Japanese people .
May be 2 degrees.

I wish I could have the same temperature in winter....


He left a message for us.
